    Yeah okay pack it in boys, we’re screwed lol.

    Why even bother to run a primary at this point? Just let the DNC select their candidate so we can skip out on the 6 months of sham and shilling.

    spoiler

    Also told all yall we need progressives to split from DNC and form a fresh 3rd party bruh.

      On the bright side, if the DNC runs Kamala or Shapiro maybe itll leave rank and file democrats hungry for some other alternative to the garbage candidates forced down their throats.

      This is a recipe to ensure Republicans fully sweep every election and progressives are ignored even more than they already are. American politics are so incredibly broken, but isolating yourself by breaking off into a party that has 0 chance of ever winning anything isn’t going to fix anything.

        Well if the DNC doesn’t want to win and get Trump out, they don’t have to run a candidate. If they want to split the vote from an engaged voter base wanting something new to kick out the fascist, that’s on them.

        And how has running the DNC picks been working out?

        If the Democrats aren’t going to give the people what they want, it’s time to give a 3rd party a shot.
